Inventor: AMRANI DAVID L
IPC: G01N33/483
Filed: 1998-07-20
Abstract: An in vitro tissue testing system especially useful for testing blood/tissue interactions. The system includes a tissue holding frame which forms a chamber between two flat pieces of tissue with a spacer plate therebetween. The spacer plate includes a reservoir aperture bordered on both sides by the opposed tissue pieces, and a mechanism for depressing portions of the tissue pieces inwardly into the chamber to propel blood from one side of the chamber to the other. The flow created simulates actual blood flow in a host system. The reservoir aperture may be hourglass shaped with circular end portions and a middle blood passageway. The actuating mechanism may include pistons for alternating contact with the tissue within the confines of the opposite reservoir end portions, thus propelling blood from one end portion to the other. The pistons may be driven by a plurality of eccentric cams on shafts coupled to a common drive motor. The holding frame may include two outer plates for sandwiching the tissue pieces against the spacer plate, the outer pieces having openings corresponding to the reservoir end portions, and the pistons reciprocate through the openings into contact with the tisue.

Abstract: L'invention concerne la conception d'animaux transgéniques, dont 1) le gène PrP endogène a subi une ablation; et 2) le gène PrP exogène provient d'un animal génétiquement différent. L'animal transgénique de la présente invention est de préférence un rat ou un hamster, et idéalement une souris. Le gène PrP exogène provient de préférence d'un mouton, d'une vache, ou d'un cochon contenant les gènes PrP de la vache. Lorsque l'on inocule à une souris de cette invention un échantillon contenant les prions infectant généralement une espèce génétiquement différente (par exemple une vache), cette souris tombe malade en moins de 250 jours. L'invention concerne également des procédés de conception d'animaux transgéniques, ces procédés consistant: 1) à introduire par micro-injection un gène PrP bovin dans un ovule de souris (dont le gène PrP endogène a subi une ablation), ou 2) à reproduire une souris dont le gène PrP a subi une ablation avec une souris contenant un gène PrP bovin. Les souris ainsi conçues sont ensuite utilisées pour détecter la présence de prions, n'infectant généralement que les vaches, dans des échantillons.

Abstract: Une liaison de segment de gène constitue un moyen simple et économique de produire une séquence d'ADN amplifiée contenant des segments liés d'un gène unique ou de gènes multiples. La méthode selon l'invention concerne des amplifications en chaîne par polymérase multiplex de séquences de gènes et la liaison des exons dans une réaction unique. On effectue l'amplification en chaîne par polymérase multiplex des segments de gènes avec des amorces possédant des queues complémentaires permettant une liaison des segments de gènes et une amplification du gène lié dans une réaction en chaîne par polymérase unique. La capacité de construire un ADN amplifié à partir d'un ADN génomique contenant plusieurs introns en deux phases d'amplification en chaîne par polymérase permet la production rapide d'ADN, opération qui, jusqu'ici, nécessitait des phases longues et coûteuses.

Abstract: The bumper (1) is designed to have optimal mechanical properties
which improve the pedestrian protection. The bumper essentially consists
of a cover (10), an absorber (optional)(21,22,23) arranged beneath the
cover and the mounting elements to connect a cover and absorber to the
vehicles body. The optimal mechanical properties to improve the
pedestrian protection are according to the invention achieved by various
embodiments, the general principle of which is that the stiffness of the
lower portion of the bumper in its mounted position is increased
relative to the upper portion of the bumper. By making the lower
portion of the bumper which is directed forwardly into the direction of
driving stiffer, the impact force in case of collision with a pedestrian
is concentrated on the lower portion of the bumper.

Abstract: Glass tank refractory construction material monitoring involves computer processing of temperature probe measurements and spatial coordinates to provide time-accelerated optical representations of the measurements. Functional state changes of refractory construction materials at the boundary surfaces of melt passage containers in glass melting installations are determined by local detection of temperature gradients within the material using one or more arrays of temperature measuring probes (T1-Tn) arranged within the material and spaced from the glass-facing surface and/or within the thermal insulation. The individual measurements and the associated probe spatial coordinates are stored in a computer (9), the measurements being periodically repeated and compared with earlier measurements and local changes being determined from time-accelerated optical representations of the measured temperature values. An Independent claim is also included for a measuring system for carrying out the above process.

Abstract: A filament lamp for emission of yellow light, which has a colour film which can be easily
produced with high transparency and high thermal resistance, and in which the expected yellow
light can be emitted without a material being used which contains heavy metals which exert adverse
effects on the environment, such as cadmium, lead and the like, and a method of producing such a
lamp is achieved by providing a filament lamp having a glass bulb (10), a filament (15) which is located in
the bulb (10) with a colour film (20) on the outer surface and/or the inner surface of the bulb (10) which is form of
a combined oxide of titanium, nickel and antimony. In particular, the colour film (20) is formed on the
bulb (10) by dipping of the bulb (10) in the coating liquid, then drying and sintering the coating liquid.
Advantageously, the coating liquid is formed by admixing a solution A produced by dissolving a
nickel salt and an antimony salt in an organic solvent, addition of a titanium alkoxide and reaction
of the reaction mixture; and addition of a stabilizer which is capable of forming a chelate with
titanium with a solution B produced in the same manner as solution A, but with water added before
the addition of the titanium alkoxide.

Abstract: A movement-damping arrangement (18) resiliently supports a boss (24) fixed to the rod

attached to a housing (20) by rubber mounts (28,30). The housing (20) is fixed to the
body or chassis (16) of the vehicle. A flexible seal (32) divides the interior space of the

chambers are interconnected through a short passageway (40) and a long passageway
(42), which are respectively closed by spring-biassed valves (44,46). During relative
vibration of the boss (24) and the housing (20), the chambers (36,38) are alternately

movement of the boss (24) and the other (46) is open during upward movement of the
